As the final war at sea continues, can NATO maintain the convoy supply lines feeding its land forces in Europe, or will the USSR sever the artery? Harpoon Battleset #2 scenarios are based on established convoy escort tactics from World War I through the Falklands conflicts, as well as on theoretical scenarios taught in NATO naval academies. Heavy concentrations of enemy submarines and long-range bombers stand between your convoys and the European theaters; to defeat them will require every technique, tactic and dodge you can bring to bear. AT your disposal is the entire panoply of NATO naval technology.

Though the Harpoon Series of boardgames shares the title and is listed in the Adapted from Board Game, Boardgame is not a theme for this game. Both the boardgame and the videogame try to mimic naval warfare as realistic as possible within their own medium. As such, both are basically Adapted from Reality.
Do not expect to play the boardgame. This game is a (real time) simulation, not a boardgame.
